We all love free things. And around here, we love things that promote female artists, creators, writers and makers. Imagine this: there are combinations of these things. And it’s happening on this here blog. Emet Comics was launched in January 2015 to empower female storytellers and artists. They partner with these women to release new comics online every week.
And this week, we get to offer you one of these comics for free! Woot.
The work being done at Emet Comics is really important for a lot of reasons, but here are some of the most prominent:
- Women are under-represented in comics, both on the art and story side.
- Comic readers don’t have many options for stories about ALL kinds of women.
- Financial support from comic publisher’s continues to dwindle, which means new female talent aren’t getting any new opportunities.
The free comic they are offering to Being Geek Chic readers is a new title from Cindy Tobisman and Lynne Yoshii called Inside the Loop. The story follows Tora Wellborne who stands at the center of two politically diverged cities,
The Collective and The Loop. When she falls victim to the Plague, she
finds her allegiances in question as she fights to survive.
DOWNLOAD INSIDE THE LOOP HERE.
You can learn more about Emet Comics on their website or on Twitter (@emetcomics) and we really encourage you to download their freebie here to get an idea of what kind of amazing content you’ll find on their publishing platform.
